Version History

Version 1.12 (7/18/2013)
Version 7 of Google Earth introduced a new 'feature' - when opening KMZ files, the view automatically 'tilts' to an oblique angle. By specifying the tilt angle (zero) in the KML file, this version of the Macomber KMZ map (1.12) prevents Google Earth from tilting the view. There were no other changes to the map - so if you don't mind the tilt view in Google Earth, or if you are not using this KMZ file in Google Earth, there is no reason to download this update.

Version 1.11 (5/12/2012)Removed spaces from file names (JPG).

Version 1.10 (2/26/2012)
Changed draw order to 40. I noticed that this map overlaps with my Ashland Town Forest KMZ <http://gpsfiledepot.com/maps/view/569/>. If you have both on your GPS (like I did), Ashland Town Forest would 'obscure' the western edge of Macomber. Changing the draw order corrects the problem (and there is nothing important that gets obscured from having Macomber 'over' Ashland Town Forest KMZ).

Area of conservation / recreation land: 59 acres or 0.09 square miles
NOTE: This is my calculation of the extents of the area(s) with publicly accessible trails on the KMZ map. This should be the area available for hiking or other recreation, but it will also include any portion of water bodies, marshes, swamps, etc. within the boundaries of the properties on the KMZ. It would also include inaccessible conservation land within the boundaries, such as a buffer zone of "Do not enter" land around a reservoir.
